I finished my undergrad 6 years ago and want to get into a PhD program in a year or two. I expect my research will pertain to DSP and involve FFT/DFT on a regular basis. To brush up on my math (PreCalc, Calculus, Linear Algebra etc), I've been watching Khan's videos nightly. I must say his videos are a great way to recollect what you've already understood once but forgotten now.
I wish there was a way to speed them up though. I've thought about downloading the mp4s from YouTube and playing them locally at high-speed with VLC.
- robryan 16y agoYeah I'm planning on going through the stats stuff on there, failed a stats class last year because I didn't really give it attention so want to make sure I pass it easy this time round.
- amh 16y agoIt would be cool if he offered all the courses as a single download via torrent or perhaps a mail-order DVD.
- bluesmoon 16y agoI think that would detract from his primary focus, which is teaching the subject. If he had to spend time maintaining a server, managing accounts and sending out DVDs in the mail, there won't be much time left for teaching. If he had to hire someone to do it for him, he couldn't offer the service for free any more.
- kragen 16y agoYou know, it doesn't take that much time to upload a torrent of some MP4s to The Pirate Bay or LegalTorrents or whatever.
